Can you hear the increasing drum of discontent from within?

SONGS OF A RENEGADE

Like  a  snowstorm  in  summer time
Examining  discrepancies  indiscreetly
Yelling  out  loud  in  the  middle  of  movies
Moving  on  without  known  pride  nor  glory
All  for  the  sake  of  reading  a  different  story
Portraying  the  villain  in  a  chorus  of  unanimity
Born  to  a  state  of  interrupted  uniformity
Remaining  silent  in  a  choir  of  voices  similarly  singing
As  I  renege  on  the  sights  I  see  and sounds  I  hear
Fearful  of  complacency,  sends   me  racing  from  thee
Never  to  return  to  the  cauldron  of  like  minded   humanity
Happy  and  naked  in  haste  of  undressing   ubiquity
My  individuality  is  complete  in  anonymity
Like  the  wind,  I’m  unimpeded  from  roaming
Able   to  climb  up   and  down   mountains
As  I  blow  over  oceans,  leaving  waves  in  wake
Moving  clouds  in  sight  to  cover  both  sun  and   moon
Singing  my  whistling  song  of  difference  in  mood
Perpetually  counter  clockwise   movements  and  actions
Obscuring   views   to  picturesque  untruths  in  shroud
I  remain  lonely  and  uncovered,  but  in  self  I am  found
In  the  depths  of  thinking  outside  the  box
Melodic  rhythms  yet  to  be  sung  or  hummed  
Played  out  serendipitously  down  the  line
A   penalty  of  a   gift  of  which  comes  first
To  be  undiscovered,  unknown  and  misunderstood
Proven  to  be  right  at  a  date  yet  determined
Keeps  me  sojourning  through  time  and  space
Enjoying  the  Journey  and  Teaching  to  soon  be  reaching
Masses  in  matter of  fact(ly)  speaking  and  singing  in
The  Songs  of  the  Renegade!!!
Like  a  snowstorm  in  summer time
Examining  discrepancies  indiscreetly
Yelling  out  loud  in  the  middle  of  movies


Moving  on  without  known  pride  nor  glory
All  for  the  sake  of  reading  a  different  story
Portraying  the  villain  in  a  chorus  of  unanimity


Born  to  a  state  of  interrupted  uniformity
Remaining  silent  in  a  choir  of  voices  similarly  singing
As  I  renege  on  the  sights  I  see  and sounds  I  hear


Fearful  of  complacency,  sends   me  racing  from  thee
Never  to  return  to  the  cauldron  of  like  minded   humanity
Happy  and  naked  in  haste  of  undressing   ubiquity


My  individuality  is  complete  in  anonymity
Like  the  wind,  I’m  unimpeded  from  roaming

Your poem shouts to be heard. It says a lot, has meaning. Out spoken very well done. Good job.

Thought provoking is an understatement. Perpetual mind candy.

Thanks for commenting (smile)

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
